America changes immigrants, and people will change, especially once they begin to become fully enveloped in the American economic experience. Your views on these issues begin to evolve rapidly, Rubio said. The future of the conservative movement in America is to try to convince as many of our fellow Americans as possible that limited government and free enterprise is the best way forward for them and for our country.

"Sen. Marco Rubio gave a lengthy defense of his work on immigration reform on Tuesday, telling a room full of journalists that he wasnt in the debate to score political points or guarantee Republicans the Hispanic vote, but rather because its personal."

You are a United States Senator, Rubio. Your sworn duty is to defend the constitution, defend the nation, not carry out a personal agenda. You were elected by the people to defend against Obama's communist excesses. Traitor!

The future of the conservative movement in America is to try to convince as many of our fellow Americans as possible that limited government and free enterprise is the best way forward for them and for our country.

And we do that by importing millions of poor, illiterate, and unskilled. People dependent upon government largess, who refuse to adopt English as their language, and American cultural values as their own. People who unswervingly vote Democrat. Is that the party of limited government and free enterprise?

It’s easier to change the views of those citizens who already live in America by exposing the Leftist in the DNC, academia, and the media as liars and deceivers who DO NOT HAVE THE INTERESTS OF THE UNDERCLASS AT HEART.

The DNC goal is to keep them dumb, poor (or in debt), and dependent.

Maybe, if you’re lucky, you can get a government job with a pension that kicks in after 20 years of active duty and pays out 90% of your final annual salary for life. So long as you didn’t work in a deadbeat Democrat town like Detroit that is filing for bankruptcy over empty promises.

Yes, but slowly. Which is why immigration (legal or illegal) needs to advance at a slower pace.

It IS true that "hispanics" whose families have been here for over 50 years are far more likely to vote Republican than recent arrivals......in fact, I wish someone would do a survey, I'd bet money that it's over 50%

Now Harry Reid is calling House Republicans, “Crazies”. I guess he is just taking his cue from John McCain who calls conservatives “Hobbits” and “Wacko Birds”. It is high time for a massive march on D.C. by conservatives.

Yes, once upon a time, maybe, but after all of the profiling and warrant-less wiretaps, IRS intimidation, surveillance, NSA revelations, Benghazi coverup, etc. we've been through/seen and not seen recently, lemme ask you, do you trust the election process and vote count right now?

Polling from the 2012 election directly contradicts Rubio’s claims. Hispanic voters in the US - supposedly people who came here (or who’s parents/grandparents came here) and were “changed” by America - voted for Obama based on support for ObamaCare. Not immigration.

I really wish someone would call Rubio, and other GOP supporters of amnesty, out on this.

which is why immigration should not occur rapidly, especially from groups with massive numbers (and therefore disincentives to assimilation).

It WOULD be interesting to see a survey comparing voting preferences of recent hispanic immigrants (legal or otherwise), as opposed to those whose families are in their 3rd generation. From my experience in a Hispanic-heavy state, I'd be willing to bet the long-termers vote Republican about as often as the non-hispanics.

That statement held some truth to it 50 years ago. In the past decades immigrants, especially those from Latin/Hispanic
countries, have particularly isolated themselves from becoming true U.S. Citizens. And both the Federal and State governments have aided and abetted this isolation by pushing us towards a bilingual country. We should have NEVER accepted the printing of Spanish forms, signs, etc. here in the USA. Every immigrant group has assimilated themselves by learning the language. By not doing so, these immigrants have thumbed their noses or flipped the bird to our country that they want to be welcomed in.

An admission about the character of the individuals he wishes to grant amnesty.

Rubio is an idiot.

The “normal” motive of the legitimate immigrant is to enhance the liberties, independence, and strength of the United States. It’s not the US’ responsibility to repair the illegal aliens Rubio is so attached to.

Senator Marco Rubio: The future of the conservative movement in America is to try to convince as many of our fellow Americans as possible that limited government and free enterprise is the best way forward for them and for our country.

Agreed, but limited government and free enterprise has to come first. The social welfare state provides a perverse incentive to NOT work harder by making it much harder to work one’s way up out of poverty. Previous generations of immigrants worked hard and assimilated because they had to. That no longer applies.

Find it strange when the excuse is being given that while the government knows whats going on in 300 million citizens lives but because the illegals are not citizens and in “the shadows” according to Florida’s Senator Rubio the US doesn’t know who they are or where they’re comming from so we must make them citizens..

THE QUESTION IS SENATORS AND CONGRESS MEMBERS ...WHY ARE YOU SO SET ON IMPORTING LOW WAGE LABORERS MAINLY FROM ONE COUNTRY WHICH TAKE UP JOBS OUR YOUTH COULD BE PERFORMING AND HURTING THE BLACK AMERICANS JOB MARKET ?

FR’s ; are urged to visit their respective Congressional Representatives and let them know their feelings

WHEN IT COMES TO AMNESTY

THIS IS THE MEXICAN PART NO ONE DARES MENTION

If you agree with the above and the following please don’t let it lay here in FR-land. Pass it on to to your favorite talk show host and to your US legislators. PUSH THE HASTERT RULE.

ONE NATIONALITY AMNESTY SKEWS QUOTAS. HURTS OTHERS FROM SOUTH AMERICA, AND SKILLED LABOR QUOTAS FROM OTHER NATIONS ...WORSE YET OFFERING AMNESTY FOR NATIONALS FROM A COUNTRY THAT HAS CLAIMS ON OUR NATIONAL TERRITORY THAT COULD AND HAS TURNED INTO PROBLEMS FOR BORDER STATES CLAIMED BY MEXICO .

In that May 3rd speech Obama gave before the Mexican Anthropological Museum in which he blamed America for the violence in Mexico I believe he went even futhur. Theres a inference but never referenced by name to the Gasden purchase and border settlements US made with Mexico where Obama hinted he seems to side with the Mexican claims. Would those in attendence share that view is a question that should be asked, because I believe they would,.he does.

SOLVING THE ‘LATINO” PROBLEM A MYTH HISPANIC IS NOT A RACE BUT A POLITICAL LINGUISTIC CONTRIVANCE ...don’t fall into the hyphenated Americans trap created by the hyphenated political party ...The DEMO-COMS

The Mexicans have been getting most favorable treatment above the rest of our neighbors both north and south. Theyre permitted to cross our borders and enter illegally and are allowed access to rights of citizenship (with the exception of voting which if the democrat party regains control over the House will happen) other nationals entering this country dont get.. Worse yet the Obama government has been working hand in glove with Mexican movements such as LaRaza supporting the Mexican claims which are also supporting “Amnesty”.

Also by allowing Mexicans to do this any quota ration for immigration from other south and central American countrys are taken up by Mexicans while that country is laying claim to a large chunk of our sovereign territory is a recipe for later serious problems which are happening now.

ARE MEXICAN ILLEGALS SQUATTERS PERPETUATING THE MEXICAN CLAIMS ?

We are already seeing the result of this in certain areas claimed by the Mexicans. Their national flag (standard) gets displayed over ours. Where there is a controlling number of Mexican nationals (illegals). Its displayed over certain institutions particularly schools accompanied by riots and disturbances. Blacks are threatend by Mexicans in certain sections of citys in those areas. Were courting trouble by not placing a value on our sovereignty and our citizenship.

MOST COINS OF THE REALM HAVE TWO FACES WHAT ABOUT HOW ARE AMERICAN CITIZENS LIVING IN MEXICO BEING TREATED ?

Worse yet if a US citizen goes into Mexico never mind illegaly but legally. Theyll get 2nd class treatment. Land ownership in title is prohibited period. And there are a slew of regulations they must comply with. Which doesnt apply to a citizen of Mexico

THE SOLUTION ASSERT OUR SOVEREIGNTY AND TALK RECIPROCITY .

By not insisting on reciprocity particularly on those who have entered this country illegally were offering no incentive for assimilation and were not easing the burden for our fellow citizens who for what ever reason decided to live in Mexico.

ENOUGH OF THE ONE WORLD SOCIALISM ...BRING BACK SOVEREIGNTY AND SANITY TO OUR COUNTRY .....BRING BACK BELIEF IN GOD ...THIS GOVERNMENT OUT OUR FACE..... OUR RELIGIONS..... AND OUR BEDROOMS..

Actually, it's the other way around, Marco. Immigration is transforming America into something unrecognizable.

Mexican immigration is changing America from the most advanced nation on Earth into a dirty, third world barrio. What were once decent middle class neighborhoods throughout the southwest (and increasingly elsewhere) now look like filthy slums covered in litter and festooned in graffiti.

Let me tell you a little anecdote about that. I have some ethnically Mexican family by marriage. The first generation people who remain are patriotic Americans with traditional values. The second generation is a little Kooky Kalifornian with a few standouts who served this nation and are basically Reaganites raising their families right. The third generation is generally a disaster, with several on welfare, most of the girls having been bred by multiple illegal aliens, and all are off the charts leftists. Every goddamned one! Now maybe things would have been different had the family left California, but the end result is that the first generation is pro-America, socially and mostly fiscally conservative, not even remotely anti-Caucasian, and generally speak perfect English with no accent. The third generation is, as I said, a disaster. The impact of the illegal alien invasion has caused those people (and their communities) to regress toward the Turd World mean. I bet you are generally right, outside of areas heavily infested with illegal aliens.
